FRWB 1.0.1

Installer fix only; renaming works exactly as it did in 1.0.0.

Downloads

File	For
frwbSetup-1.0.1.exe	Windows, installs for your user only, no administrator prompt
FRWB-1.0.1-portable.zip	Windows, nothing installed: unzip and run
FRWB-1.0.1-macos.zip	macOS, unzip and move FRWB.app to Applications

Fixed since 1.0.0

• A silent install no longer hangs when FRWB is open. Setup's "appears
  to be running" question could not be suppressed by /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES, so
  frwbSetup-1.0.1.exe /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES waited for a click
  nobody could see. It now answers No and exits cleanly with code 1,
  installing nothing. A normal, interactive install asks exactly as before.

Note for macOS

The bundle is not code-signed, so Gatekeeper refuses it on first open.
Right-click the app and choose Open, or run:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine FRWB.app

Signing needs a paid Apple Developer account this project does not have.

FRWB 1.0.0

Rename every file in a folder from a pattern, with the new names shown beside
the old ones before anything changes.

New since 0.9.0

• macOS build. The application now ships as a .app bundle alongside the
  Windows installer, built and checked by the same workflow.
• A rename can no longer replace a file in the way. Path.rename refuses
  to overwrite on Windows and silently overwrites on POSIX, so the safety net
  the rename service was built on existed on one platform only. It is now an
  explicit check on both, with a test that says so. Windows was never
  affected, which is why 0.9.0 shipped safely.
• Settings go where each platform expects. Application Support on macOS
  rather than a folder dropped in the middle of your home directory.
• A website, with the full manual and screenshots:
  https://charette-ai-group.github.io/FRWB/

What it does

• A pattern built from eight tokens, each with a button that shows a tick
  while it is in use, plus any literal text you type
• Counters with a start, step and zero padding, and dates from the file, from
  the photo's EXIF data, or one you pick
• Conflicts and invalid names shown in the preview and blocked before
  anything is written
• Two-phase renaming, so swapping names or renumbering a series in place
  overwrites nothing
• Undo for the last batch
